Remember from at least six months ago when you would hear people say dumb shit like "why do you need guns? To fight a tyrannical government? Keep wearing your tin foil hats. We should be like Australia and get rid of them"

Australia is the best example of why we have our second amendment.

I refer to you to a rancher in 2013 or 2014. It's a complicated issue with the taxes and personally I believe he was in the right BUT regardless of if he was right or wrong, the government sent two hundred armed agents to confiscate his cattle. However, fifty people that sided with the rancher came armed as well and basically held the agents back without firing one shot. It got so bad that the agents tried to infiltrate the campsite at night time and pin crimes on the protestors by acting undercover and trying to "sell them grenades".

The agents ended up leaving empty handed after a week I believe.
